Absolutely lush and beautiful, @BklynKinsey .  We don't have gardens like that where I live.  You must have quite a green thumb.

Wow, you have some beautiful colors so early in the season. Lots of gardeners in my area wait until Memorial Day to plant. I started on May 6, but there's always a risk of frost.

I'm in NYC, zone 7a.  I usually start planting my annuals first week in May.  Sometimes I do have to cover the tender ones  overnight if we get a cold night.  I do my last plantings at the very end of May/early June -- caladium bulbs (they hate the cold).  I'll be planting those bulbs tomorrow.

@BklynKinsey Wow, really gorgeous!  There's not a lot blooming yet where I am.  My peonies should bloom in a week or two I would think.  Maybe I'll try to post.  Mine are a light pink color.  Anyway, I'm very impressed with your garden!  Beautifully done!!
